You WONT get any squad leader xp if your mouse droid is out of range, as for the skill mods working... not sure.



What I suggest is, get a bulk discount on a backpack full of mousedroids. Ive usualy got about 10 of em at hand. Its a little bit of work to get them to keep up, but worth it for the extra little bit of xp while soloing. I also hand them out to friends that have no pets when we go group hunting. Anything to add up that SL XP.

Using rally will do much more damage than good. ESPECIALLY while solo, there would be no point unless you wanted to get slain for a free trip back to town. I don't even waste the mind on a rally for my group.

Well maybe perhaps this isn't an important question to many but here it goes. BTW I'm not a SL yet.. that will depend on how this next question is answered : ) ... if answered *praying*


Question: If I am only grouped with a mouse droid that I left halfway across the map ( out of range to receive SL bonuses )canI still use SL abilities like Rally ( toboost only myself )and willmy Melee and Ranged bonuses still work for "me"?


In short can I receive SL benifits without any group members near me?

hmmmm, I'm not certain on /rally while "solo-grouping" (kinda defeats the purpose/spirit of the Squad Leader role I think, but no matter). But, it would be interesting to know if your passive defenses are working while solo-grouped.


I do know that /retreat will work on all your groupmates even if they're half a world apart (say your team's getting routed, you die and clone, you can use /retreat to help the survivng members get out of dodge). /retreat confers no benefit to you though.

OK let me just come out with it hehe.


I'm a BH that uses Eyeshot. ( Don't hate me cuz I'm beutiful )Eyeshot will blindplayers thus lowering their chance to hit you.


Here is my templete idea:


SL Tactics Line: Gives me +25 Ranged Defense


Teras Kasi Percision Strike Line : +30 Ranged Defense


Total Ranged Defense: +55


This is not to mention the Ranged Defense I'll get from other Professions like Marksman.


So basicaly players will be fighting me while blinded and I've got a 55 plus Ranged Defense.


What do you think.

I think the best way to Solo is to do it with a gurreck, a probot, and 3 specforce marines (or whatever their imperial equivalent is). This way you've got 6 squad members, which gets you fast XP.

Well Ishpur to your idea, Im afraid ive got to tell you that if you get master BH, and take SL up to expert tactics, you will only have 13 points left, not enough to get one box of brawler, much less TK. But a Bounty Hunter with master Tactics would be an interesting good group leader. And think how usefull /sysgroup would be when using a group to hunt your marks



A much better tactic : find a Squad Leader to group with, and report back how well it worked. We would LOVE to see an example of how we would make a good second half of a pair, when compared to any other class.
